Pig Tales by Iggy Oink – 31

Pig Tales by Iggy Oink – 31 – Iggy Oink is very sad whenever he thinks of piglets and all the other land animals and birds who die – having never really lived. When you read the “ages of slaughter” – you might want to think of your own children and wonder how you would feel if your child’s life was stolen at such an early age!

Something else Iggy wants to remind you of – these deaths are not gentle, pain free or without terror. Every creature wanted to live. What gives us the right to take the lives of these babies? Just because we’re used to this killing – does not make it right.
